Amelia Earhart's Last Fligh lyrics

Just a ship out on the ocean, a speck against the sky,
Amelia Earhart flying that sad day;
With her partner, Captain Noonan, on the second of July
Her plane fell in the ocean, far away.

There¡¯s a beautiful, beautiful field
Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair.
Happy landings to you, Amelia Earhart,
Farewell, first lady of the air.

Half an hour later her SOS was heard,
Her signal¡¯s weak, but still her voice was brave.
In shark-infested waters her aeroplane went down that night
In the blue Pacific to a watery grave.

There¡¯s a beautiful, beautiful field
Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair.
Happy landings to you, Amelia Earhart,
Farewell, first lady of the air.

Now you heard my story ¡¯bout this awful tragedy,
We all pray she¡¯ll fly home safe again.
In years to come, though others blaze a trail across the sea,
We¡¯ll ne¡¯er forget Amelia and her plane.

There¡¯s a beautiful, beautiful field
Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair.
Happy landings to you, Amelia Earhart,
Farewell, first lady of the air.
Farewell, first lady of the air.
